Impacts of inter-urban transportation railway to regional development (Case study: Sukaraja District - Bogor Regency - West Java Province)

Abstract

Inter-urban transportation railway becomes the chosen mass transportation mode by the people for daily commuting. The tariff is relatively cheaper and affordable. The travel times are shorter as compared to other modes of transportation. This study aimed to understand the development surrounding Jakarta – Bogor Inter-urban transportation railway station - Cilebut Station located in Sukaraja District. Correlation between passengers and population is 0.99 that shows great impacts to development area surrounding it. Analysis of development aspects are land use, population, and economic change. Using Geographic Information System analysis from the year 2010 to 2015, residential area increased by 18.11% and plantation area decreased by 32.9%. Population was analyzed using average rate of growth from the year 2011 to 2015, the result is 4.6%. Population density increased from 3809 people/sq.km to 4694 people/sq.km. Facilities of industry and grocery store increased, likewise labor structure of business and hotel increased by 11350 persons and services by 3460 persons. But agriculture labor decreased by 894 persons. Based on this research, local government should be alerted. In the case a region has a railway station and is stopped-by inter-urban transportation trains, the area development will take place rapidly, intervention needs to be done.

Pengembangan Sistem Transportasi Masa Depan: Mobilitas Berkelanjutan dan Otonom di Jawa Barat

“…Sistem transportasi di Jawa Barat meliputi kendaraan pribadi, sepeda motor, bus umum, dan kereta api, yang memainkan peran penting dalam memfasilitasi kegiatan ekonomi dan perjalanan sehari-hari bagi penduduk. Namun, wilayah ini menghadapi tantangan dalam mengembangkan sistem transportasi umum yang efisien dan berkelanjutan karena terbatasnya cakupan, infrastruktur yang kurang memadai, dan masalah keterjangkauan, yang menyebabkan ketergantungan yang tinggi pada kendaraan pribadi (Kasikoen & Martini, 2019). Untuk mengatasi tantangan-tantangan ini, pemerintah Jawa Barat telah memprakarsai beberapa kebijakan dan proyek.…”

“…Hal ini mencakup pengembangan sistem Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), perbaikan infrastruktur jalan, dan upaya untuk mempromosikan sepeda sebagai moda transportasi yang berkelanjutan (Kasikoen & Martini, 2019). Selain itu, penelitian telah menunjukkan bahwa transportasi kereta api antar kota, seperti kereta api Jakarta-Bogor, memiliki dampak yang signifikan terhadap pembangunan daerah, dengan tarif yang terjangkau dan waktu tempuh yang lebih singkat dibandingkan dengan moda transportasi lainnya (Kasikoen & Martini, 2019;Saptutyningsih & Karimah, 2019). Terlepas dari upaya-upaya tersebut, masih terdapat masalah dengan aksesibilitas dan pengelolaan transportasi umum di Jawa Barat.…”

Dynamic Modeling Impacts of Inter-Urban Railway Transportation on Regional Development: A Case Study of Sub-Urban Greater Jakarta, Indonesia

“…A study shows a strong correlation between population increase in the areas and an increase in train passengers along this route. Conversely, the site has been experiencing a decline in agricultural land areas and people working in agriculturerelated sectors [19]. In addition, uncontrolled development in the region has also been witnessed, especially in areas surrounding the Cilebut railway station.…”
